Wiper blades Trico or VALEO
I just bought the Tricos from Rock Auto. Fit perfectly. Snap. Done.
I buy Trico ExactFit or Trico Force from RockAuto. They are very affordable and have performed pretty well for me so far.
For winter, I tried Trico Ice.and they are awesome.
I have them on the wagen right now and they're great, but I am not a fan of Valeo's aggressive logo stamping - there is a white logo on the edge of each blade that's a bit gaudy.
I've since switched to Trico Force, and I've been very happy with them. They work great and last me between 18 and 24 months.
At 5,000 miles I replaced the factory 4Runner blades with Trico Neoform beam blades (a B grade wiper in my book) and they still perform like brand new blades 10,000 miles later, including having been in the Florida heat followed by Connecticut ice, snow, and salt slurry.
Trico wiper blades are pretty great in a heavy downpour.
Get Trico winter blades. They work fine when the weather is cool/cold.
I just did it myself with a slightly different spin: I found a slightly better looking wiper blade part on the "TRICO Force" that tucks nicely over the stock window molding. Looks more like an air-foil:
I had Valeo Ultimate wipers on my truck and had them fail at after about 4 months.
